National Policy on Education (NPE), 1986
envisaged conduct of a common entrance
examination on all India basis for admission to
professional and technical programmes in the
country. For admission to Engineering and
Architecture/Planning programmes, Government of
India vide Resolution dated 18th October 2001
has laid down a Three – Exam Scheme (JEE and
AIEEE at the National Level and the State Level
Engineering Entrance Examinations (SLEEE) for
State Level Institutions – with an option to
join AIEEE). This takes care of varying
admission standards in these programmes and
helps in maintenance of professional standards.
This also solves problems of overlaps and
reduces physical, mental and financial burden on
students and their parents due to multiplicity
of entrance examinations.

Examination (AIEEE) was held on 01st May, 2011.
